Serving Baba - The Highest Sadhana | Living the Teachings of Sai Baba

In this conversation, Gautam touches upon the importance of Seva to one's Guru, and why it is considered the highest Sadhana.
The great Advaita sage, Robert Adams, emphasised that being in the presence of a living Master and serving the Master (Seva) is the Highest Sadhana for a devotee, and it is the quickest way to make progress on the spiritual path.
Many devotees on the path of Baba may feel this is no longer possible for them as Baba took Mahasamadhi in 1918. However, there are many forms of service one can render, provided a genuine feeling or Bhav arises within one's heart.
In this film, the following topics are discussed:
0:00 - Intro (कैप्शन सक्षम करें)
0:23 - Robert Adams on Seva to the Guru

8:30 Strength of a Group Vs Individual

15:12 - Not having to feel obliged to do Seva if it does not arise naturally
15:58 - Seva is ultimately for ourselves
17:40 - Living the Teaching is Seva to oneself
18:40 - The positive impact of a group
21:26 - If the world is covered by thorns

Thank you so much for these bombs of wisdom... In the devotees of saibbaba reflects the wisdom, love and grace..love these podcasts with Gautam Ji.

[@SunShine-gz8yc]

Some of the teachings that devotees must live: 1. Do not lie 2. Do not steal 3. Always feed people 4. Do not hurt anyone 5. Have patience

[@iimaaa]

so true... I so agree with the each thing.. precisely you put it..!!

[@SunShine-gz8yc]

Ima thank u..please add any other teachings if I have missed 😊

[@priyarewa8337]

I used to tell my mum who is originally from India, Why in the world did Baba choose to stay in India? There is nothing in India. Baba should have choose America or Singapore where he would be on the world map just like Jesus or Mohammad. Furiously she would remark, India is full of dharma that's why god lived and lives in India. India is India only because of sai Baba. shirdi might not be as systematic as other places of worship but shirdi is heaven on earth.

[@minik9072]

Om Sai Ram 🙏😊............ think of sadhna and here comes a video.......

[@guddibhagia932]

The best way to serve your Guru is always obey your Guru. Baba always said. ‘ serving the poor is serving Me’. Feeding the animals is feeding Me ‘. Following Guru’s teachings is serving your Guru.

Living the teachings of Baba should be the most important thing that a true devotee should have in practice. Living on a very small island in the Caribbean, I feel very fortunate that we have Sai devotees who read the Sai Satcharitra and the Sai Mahima every day collectively. Thank you so much Gautam and Nikhil for sharing such beautiful thoughts. Om Sai Ram 🙏🏼

What does meaning of not coming back in example you gave of bhagawan ramana maharishi and in sai Satcharita also I don't remember chapter baba says regarding one devotee he is not coming back what does that mean too HAD THEY ATTAINED MOKSHA????

[@hemnatedotd5804]

People from various parts of the world has been coming to Shiridi to worship baba, so it’s better to serve them in a structured manner, like I myself from Chennai but now lives in Melbourne. There is no proper structured guidance for other language people ( except Hindi ). So we could make a volunteer group ( connecting different regional devotees with mutual English knowledge) could be helpful for assisting devotees. What you have discussed was a good thing and with Baba’s blessings I hope that it would happen soon in Shirdi. #Thank you Nikil!
